Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas has resumed light on-court activity after an MRI earlier this week showed progress in his recovery from a left hamstring strain, the team said Saturday.
Although the scan confirmed healing, the 24-year-old will stay sidelined and will be re-evaluated in roughly two weeks. The earliest target for his return is Dec. 21 against Toronto.
Thomas suffered the injury on Nov. 5 versus Indiana and has missed 14 consecutive games. He is expected to sit out at least four more contests.
This is the fourth time in two seasons that Thomas has strained the same hamstring. The issue limited him to 25 appearances in 2024/25.
The No. 27 pick in the 2021 draft averaged 24.4 points, 2.9 assists and 1.6 rebounds over seven healthy games this season, shooting 40.8% from the field, 35.6% from three and 87.5% at the foul line.
Brooklyn is 1-7 with Thomas in the lineup and 4-10 without him, sitting at 5-17 overall—tied for the NBA’s fourth-worst record.
Thomas accepted a one-year, $6 million qualifying offer last offseason and can veto any trade during the 2025/26 campaign. He is slated to reach unrestricted free agency in 2026.
